While helping to fire salute in

Just what made the wounds no one
seems to know, but 1t Is very probable
he did not jerk the iron rod away
quick enough to escape the recoil of
the anvils. The first three fingers of
the left hand were cut smooth off at
the knuckle joint, and bad wound
made in the thigh. The injured boy
was brought to Elko by his mother
and placed in the County Hospital,
where he is resting easy under the
care of DR.. Meigs. Young Nichols
was formerly of Cherry Creek and
worked in the NEWS Office in 1885,

DR.. McGlynn's Insincerity.

1t is quite evident that DR. McGlynn is
not as honest and sincere a man as he would
like the public to believe he is. On last
Sunday morning, after he had been notified
that there was IA registered document for
him at the post office, which he had
reason to suspect was a notification of his
accommodation, he went to a church
whose officiating priest had not read the
morning papers and partook of the com
munion. He suspected that he had no right
to do anything of the kind, and he also
knew that if the officiating priest had been
aware of the publication of the notice of ex-
communication he would not have admins
tered communion TO him. And yet he seems
to get some satisfaction out of the fact that
notwithstanding that he was excommuni-
Gated he succeeded in a sort of underhand
way in participating in one of the most
solemn services of the church
The thing, however, which brings his in
tegrity into question the more seriously is
his refusal to state the true cause of his ex-
communication. He insists that he was
driven out of the church because he
advocated a land theory which the church
uOth ilOJ TtBdTu WIFI IdNOT. lie DOUlCe OF
accommodation, however, states very
plainly that his offense was disobedience.
1t is true that there was some question
about the advisability of permitting priest
of the Catholic church to support in public
speeches Henry Georges land theory, and
DIR. McGlynn was ordered to Rome
to explain the theory and to
give his reasons for advocating
it. He refused to go, and for his disobe-
dience he was excommunicated. If he were
the fair-minded man he pretends to be he
would say that he would not submit to the
discipline of the church and was, therefore,
turned out of it, What would have been
| the course pursued with regard to him if he
had gone to Rome it is impossible to say.
That question is matter of no Importance
now. In view of the fact that it is possible
that DIR. McGlynn may play prominent
part in politics, it is matter of some in.
terest to have clearly understood the true
reason for his accommodation.
